Step 1: Cutting and Sanding the Welding Tubes

I used some clamps that I had to brace the welding tubes to the workbench that way they would be still when we cut them. If you don't have any clamps, another pair of hands helping you hold down the tubes will work.

Take your bow saw, with the metal-cutting blade, and cut the welding tubes to the length that you desire. I cut mine to 8" each, giving you about 2" below soil, and 6" above, which should be perfect once the plants are grown in.

If the blade of your hack saw made the ends of your welding tubes really rough, you can use some medium grit sandpaper to get rid of the sharp pieces, making it a little more smooth.
